Stock one is heavier, I compared both, the carbon is lighter than the aluminum MR hood

I change wheels and tires every year, so no since in me buying volks or advans, plus with as much road construction as we have going on around where I live, rims are always getting beat up,

The shot down the side of the car makes it look super clean, no blemishes at all. Good ride, I would save up and get a better set of rims, but your right, they do get molested every now and then. To each his own, nice car, good luck with it!
Cheers

This is funny, because one of the first things I did to mine was to buy the vents that went in the stock hood. The d-bag previous owner thought it was cool to remove it, but it just keeps the engine bay very dirty, and that is no bueno.

From what I've read on here countless times is that if you want to remove weight from the front, just get a small battery kit. Supposedly you'll lose more weight than a cf hood.

Thanks bro, rims change every year so if I get a set of volks I won't change them for a while
